Uncharted 4, Overwatch And Inside Among Nominees For The Game Awards 2016

Ahead of the main event taking place on December 1, long-time host Geoff Keighley has lifted the lid on the official nominees for The Game Awards 2016.

Spotlighting the crème de la crème of the past 12 months, Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End and Blizzard’s über-popular Overwatch are up for multiple awards, while the likes of Firewatch and Playdead’s critically adorned Inside have received nods for Best Art Direction, Best Sound Design and more.

For the first time, The Game Awards 2016 will be live across every gaming screen – Facebook Live, PlayStation Network, Steam, Twitch, Twitter, Xbox Live, or YouTube – and the event itself can even be streamed via compatible VR devices. It’ll take place on Thursday, December 1 at 9:00 pm ET and if previous years are any indication, should herald a number of worldwide reveals and all-new trailers.

Below, you’ll find the comprehensive list of nominees. Tell us, which candidate will you be lobbying for in two weeks’ time? Don’t forget you can cast your vote right here.
